Or you could simply be sane.

Couldn't have happened to a more corrupt Fake News tabloid, The New York Times.

Not sure why you would rather listen to the media's interpretation of what Mr. Trump said rather than hearing it directly from his mouth, but I can make a guess...

Well, be interesting to see how future presidential debates are setup given you can`t trust the MSN not to play favorites or cheat.

You gotta be kidding me. Every meeting with the press has to be on his terms, which means no unexpected questions.

He might be able to dodge the US media by refusing to talk to them, but how is he going to handle the international stage? A president can't hide behind Twitter.

Really, that's what you're going to go with?

The presidential debates are live, short of the dems being told what the upcoming questions will be there isn't much alteration that can be done. Anyone that can do a bit of thinking for themselves could have figured that out.

But yeah, most of the rest of us have seen how ridiculously biased and untrustworthy the MSM has become.

I'm glad you still manage to enjoy it and then ask for seconds.


Concerning the OP:
It is ridiculous complaining about this at all really. So he gives a speech directly to the people via social media and bypasses the MSM.

GREAT.

Smack in the mouth to them. They don't get advertising $ from it.

They can and will STILL pick apart every last minute detail all day on their respective networks, so I don't get the crowd crying "facism" over something like this.

I mean I "get them" and understand that is their shtick, but they don't really make any sense.

Do you think there aren't media & press overseas? All of them have Washington office. They have been much more fair about the election and more often or not, you have to go to them to find out what is really happening in the USA. Trump hasn't blanked refused all the media. Just the Fake News ones.

I suggest you broaden your horizons a bit.

Funny that you should mention North Korea who has a leader a lot like our incoming..... whatever he is. They both like golf, they both have silly haircuts and they both think nukes are cool.

It may be fashionable to state this (over and over) but millions of us are hard working Americans who saw the plutocracy (and it's fascist principles) all over HC like a wet rug. So call us what you want we really don't care. Because we finally have a MAN with a couple fists whose not afraid to use them. If you want to live in a socialist country move to Sweden. Smart men know how to use power and this is not a game for the faint of heart. I recommend to you that you get your beverage or smoke of choice and get ready for some hard driving, unabashed male power. BTW we are delighted and look forward to the battles. Get Ready or leave would be my advice.
